"But you are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light."
1 Peter 2:9

after the BarlowGirl acoustic worship concert, i bought a poster with this verse on it, and i also had BarlowGirl sign it! this was also the same verse that Lauren Barlow read aloud to everyone toward the end of the show. with this verse, she explained that we shouldn't be wishing and waiting around for change in the world, waiting for someone to come along and do something; instead we should be that someone. we should go out into the world and become someone; MAKE HISTORY! God wanted this generation to be the generation for change!
BarlowGirl wrote a song about this, and it's called Million Voices:
Tell me who’d have thought that we would be so controversial
And stand up against the normal
Are we too outspoken, loud, and messing up the comfortable
Well we’ve been messed up also
Yeah, yeah

But how can we be silent
When a fire burns inside of us

Chorus :
‘Cause we’re a million strong and getting stronger still
They’ll remember we here
With a million voices breaking silence till
They’ll remember we were here

We were made to start the riot, take on the impossible
And we will slay the giants
We are done with fake religion
fighting now to find the movement
Won’t stop till we find it

How can we be silent
When a fire burns inside of us

Chorus :
‘Cause we’re a million strong and getting stronger still
They’ll remember we here
With a million voices breaking silence till
They’ll remember we were here

We’re a million strong and getting stronger still
They’ll remember we were here
With a million voices breaking silence till
They’ll remember we were here

Chorus :
‘Cause we’re a million strong and getting stronger still
They’ll remember we here
With a million voices breaking silence till

They’ll remember we were here

They’ll remember we were here

You will remember
Yes you’ll remember

You will remember
Yes you’ll remember
